Feeling Lonely

Anonymous Bride, on June 12, 2023 at 9:52 AM Posted in Community Conversations 2 1

Hey!

Has or is anyone else in the planning process felt lonely and let down? I am not sure what I expected from people but this is not it. For context I lost my mom years ago, so there has been some emotional difficulty in this process. I decided to have two maid of honors due to not wanting to choose and because why not. One girl lives out of town but has been incredible. The other who is in town has done absolutely nothing to help planning wise. She is also the last person to get their dress and we are two months out. I tried months ago to express how I was feeling with no change. I have had some help from my FMIL however whenever I try to talk to her she often presents distracted. We have also dealt with push back from my fiancés parents surrounding no kids, people being full on angry they we have said no to bringing their random hook up, and just ongoing comments from people about the stupidest stuff. My fiancé has been a great support but I'm tired, I feel unimportant, and lonely. How do you or did you cope with these things?

    I'm sorry you're feeling that way. I'm sure you must be missing your mom dearly at this point. Can you lean on your FI for support?

    Just as a side note, your maids of honour don't really need to do anything except get their dress, so they've done nothing wrong. The one in town doesn't need to help with planning. The maids of honour position is meant for you to be honouring them, not the other way around. What about asking the in town one out for lunch and just not focusing on the wedding but just to do something nice for her?
